Duo's film to enjoy a REEL-y special screening
Filmmakers Dean and Rebecca Sills have seen documentary screened from Barnsley to Bristol
A feature length documentary by a father and daughter film-making duo which has been screened everywhere from Barnsley to Bristol will be on the silver screen in Scarborough this month.
The award-winning documentary Laurel and Hardy's Yorkshire Adventures from Dearne Valley filmmakers Dean and Rebecca Sills has sold out twice on Amazon as a DVD release and is still broadcasting on Talking Pictures TV Encore.
The film follows Dean and Rebecca as they travel across Yorkshire to retrace the steps of the legendary comedy duo Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, exploring the historical venues where the iconic pair performed during their real-life UK tours.
The documentary about the comedic Hollywood greats premiered at the Laurel and Hardy UK Convention in Harrogate and went on to enjoy a limited run at Parkway Cinema in Barnsley.
It also screened at this year's Slapstick Festival in Bristol which both Dean (57) and Rebecca (26) from Bolton-upon-Dearne attended as guests.
It will be shown at the North Bay Playhouse in Scarborough on Sunday, September 13.
The success of the film has led to Dean and Rebecca making a follow-up film called Laurel and Hardy: To Hull and Back, which will be released next year.
Dean said: "We are extremely grateful to Jon Walker, the owner and operator of the North Bay Playhouse for screening our film.
“Nothing beats seeing a film on the big screen.
“It looked and sounded amazing at Parkway Cinema in Barnsley.
“We can't wait to see the film in this beautiful cinema in Scarborough, it will be pretty special.”
